Suppose its being the centre of attention in that he may be ahead of the story here. And the opportunity to say 'I told you so'.

Seems SVC is being fed by someone close to Xia.

I'm less interested in SVC's motives than I am in whether he's correct.

His periscope video rant from his sick bed last night mentions 3 sources.

Yes, sounds like a good idea.  Maybe change the thread title to "Factory of Sadness" though?! :)

That's Copyright Cleveland Browns though, and I don't think Villa can afford the royalties at the moment.

I'm still trying to decide which franchise I pull for is in worse shape.  The Browns have won a grand total of one game in 2 years, but Villa is on the verge of bankruptcy.  I guess the Browns can be thankful they don't have relegation in the NFL.

I speak for myself with this, and very selfishly, to say I'd rather we went bust, kaput and gone completely.

i'd be proud of the history, sorry about what's happened but glad and relieved I have to go through no more.

Then I'd start to support Hallam FC, the closest non-league team to me and my children would probably opt for Sheffield United as their local team (the closest team in any league or non-league etc). It would be release from this shite forever.

I hate modern football but at the same time I'm addicted to it, this would be the only way to wean myself.

I just hope that was our bad 144 years.

Wouldn’t be so bad if we’d got something to show for it. At least Portsmouth’s largesse bought them an GA Cup.

At least you have the Cavs, ED!

For another 3 days anyway.  Then they'll be swept, Lebron will be gone, we'll have the highest payroll of any team that can't make the playoffs, and a severe lack of draft picks for a couple of years.  But yeah, at least they can't get relegated either!

That pretty much sums up what I think too.

As it stands i'm more inclined to believe Stan's assumption that Wyness is the main guilty party rather than The Mirror's piece which was seemingly written by Wyness himself putting all blame on Xia

But who knows. Wyness has certainly got his side across quick via Nursery though
